This country is not dead until the 2nd is willingly surrendered. Older generations would not, but those growing up now are trained to fear the gun in private hands. They listen to hypocritical idols like Matt Damon. They would and with relish. Thus only criminals and the state would have that power and America would be very dead indeed.
Hillary is ideal for this role. Like a mother hen reigning in her over ambitious chicks, Hillary will say that we've moved past the time when guns were necessary in private hands. Any who resist will be haters of women, minorities, and the almightily vague "progress". I think it won't take nearly ten years. This country after eight years of the great divider is like a rotten melon begging for a mallet, at least it is if you believe In T.V..
Unfortunately, many do, and that belief makes the sick fantasy real. Don't pledge your faith to any of this stuff is my advice.
I pretty much agree with all you said here.
The attack on the 2nd Amendment if Hillary gets elected will be her appointments to the USSC. (I don't think she would try an EO, nor would congress try to pass such legislation.)
Even recently, 2008, Heller vs DC was a USSC case which held in a 5-4 decision that the 2nd Amendment protects an individual's right to possess a firearm.
That case was 5-4. Almost lost the individual right to keep and bear arms in 2008.
The timeline would look somthing like this, Hillary gets elected. She gets 2-4 appointments to USSC. A case eventually bubbles up within 10 years of her election. BOOM - no 2nd amendment right for an individual.
1. They wouldn't start to enforce this immediately. They wouldn't go door to door, yet.
2. But also, all the gun stores would have to shut down very soon.
1. Example of the non-enforcement was in California. If I remember the numbers correctly, about 3M SKS were sold before 1998. California reclassified and California offered a buy-back. California created a website encouraging voluntary enforcement. Only 6,000 went through the government buy-back. Many people wrote letters to the governor Gray Davis, saying they bought them when they were legal, and now they are not legal, but they won't participate in the confiscation program, so "come and get them." Some of these letters were posted on the internet. California has yet to actually enforce this law.
2. Example of gun stores shutting down are the recent “assault” weapons ban last month in Massachusetts. After the law was "declared" by the Attorney General, she gave the gun stores one day to stop selling them. Can you imagine after a Supreme Court decision banning all individual ownership of guns? All gun stores would shut down within the next day. At least NO GUN SALES. Only accessories would be sold.
